The Wealth Mentality

"... Who greatly delights in (God's) Commandments... Wealth and Riches are in his house" (Psalm 112: 3 ESV)
The law of attraction is a recent fad, which in summary means that if you set your mind on a specific thing wholeheartedly, you will attract that same thing to your life. To a very high extent, this is true, and actually if you read the famous book "The Secret" you can see that a whole chapter is dedicated to explain one verse in the Bible which describes how the Law of Attraction works.

But thousands of years before "the law of attraction" spread, the Bible proclaimed that your mentality can impact your life. Actually Joshua (who lived around 1,500 years BC) proclaimed by inspiration that positive & continuous meditation in the word of God will lead a human to become "Prosperous". (See Joshua 1: 8)

For years, the Church erroneously promoted the "Poverty mentality" by claiming that the poor are better and more godly than the rich, abusing some of the verses that Christ spoke. I believe the reason behind this is linked to the tyranny of the middle ages, where the clergy wanted to control the wealth of peasants and put the poor laity under their sway.

This message of poverty have kept people bound to poverty and satisfied with the ruthless life they used to live, not challenged to achieve more, but rather pushed down to settle for the least possible, silenced and anesthetized with a promise of richness of the soul in the afterlife.

The Poverty "Gospel" is not the Good News that Jesus Proclaimed during His earthly mission. He announced during His most famous sermon, the sermon on the mount, about the Goodness of God's blessings. "If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your Children," Jesus taught in Matthew 7: 11, "how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!". 

I have real "good news" for you. It is time for the Church and for believers around the world to understand that God wants to give them a good life, here and now. Not "A pie (or Up High) in the Sky when we die!!!"

It is time for you to start meditating on God's goodness, and standing firm on the promise of God to give you "Good things" in this life. Change your mentality, and build your expectations that God will provide for all your needs and will honor you, as a Child of God, born of His nature, with wealth and Riches.

Believe me, once you do that, and change your mindset,  the Divine law of attraction will work for you, and you will see success, wealth and riches come your way.

Idea for Meditation: 
"Unlike what you may have thought previously, God wants you to be rich and prosperous. Wealth and Riches are blessings for those who trust God and ask for his Goodness"

"Goodness... will follow me" (Psalm 23: 6)

"Surely, goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I shall dwell in the house (presence) of the LORD forever" (Psalm 23: 6)

An amazing truth!!
Sometimes some of us look at their lives and see that problems, grief, sorrow and pain  follow them all their life. Well, though this might reflect facts surrounding them, but it does not reflect the Spiritual Reality that God wants for them. On the contrary, God has a different plan for you. His plan for you is for goodness and mercy to follow you. Goodness includes everything from Spiritual satisfaction acquired once you understand God's love for you, manifested in Jesus Christ, to mental freshness, soundness, peace and "creativity" which is actually a characteristic of God the "Creator", and even material and physical goodness, reflected in health, and prosperity.

God's Promise for you (in Jeremiah 29: 11 CEV) is "I will bless you with a future filled with hope - a future of success, not of suffering" Unlike what traditions of men say, God does not want you to suffer. Actually, on the contrary, the Bible says that suffering, sickness and poverty are the tools of the devil in the world to hinder you from reaching your God-given life-purpose, your hopeful future. Therefore, instead of surrendering to the suffering, pain, poverty and sickness and all the negativeness that surround you fight it with you faith, with a confidence that once you resist the devil, all his tools of darkness, confusion, poverty and lack, sickness and disease will fade away.

This message is not intended to put judgement on you if you have certain lacks or sicknesses in your life, but rather to put God's promise in front of your eyes so you can cling to the hope in the better life that God has prepared for you. Remember His promise of a Future of Success and not of suffering.

I urge you today to meditate on the verse above from Psalm 23... repeat it several times, until your mind is washed clean from the filth of hopelessness. So that your hope in a better future is restored. If God wants to give you a better future, who can come against you?!!! and God has promised the better future to all those who believe.

Yes, "goodness will follow you, catch you, and knock you down... " why not enjoy the divine goodness, health and prosperity that God has implanted in your Spirit-being today? Get connected with your inner man and proclaim: "today I take of the goodness of God, grafted in my Spirit being and manifest it in the material world".

Amen.
